Remote management appliance that provides out-of-band access to IT assets that have both KVM and serial interfaces.

The Dominion KSX II is an integrated remote management appliance that provides out-of-band access to IT assets that have both KVM and serial interfaces. It provides anytime, anywhere access and BIOS-level control of servers, as well as serial console access to networking devices. This, combined with remote power control and strong security features, makes the KSX II an optimal choice for troubleshooting and managing equipment in remote offices.

The KVM components of the Dominion KSX II combine the productivity of IP access with a new level of at-the-rack KVM performance through faster video updates, Absolute Mouse Synchronization™ and 1600x1200 remote resolution. In addition, the integrated serial control and modem add additional layers of security and availability not available in standard SSH and Telnet access.

Each Dominion KSX II comes equipped with virtual media to enable remote management tasks using the widest variety of CD, DVD, USB, internal and remote drives. Virtual media is available to all customers – whether through Raritan’s CommandCenter® management appliance for centralized access and control, or in a standalone configuration.

The Dominion KSX II provides a common, browser-based user interface across the local console, remote access and device management. It also features a browser-based local console interface for at-the-branch productivity.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cliff Like night and day compared to other IP KVMs! I've tried four (4) different IP KVMs. I use the Lantronic Spiders for individual server needs and LOVE them. But in my server room I needed a bigger setup. My first three tries were crash, crash, and crash. I was just beginning to think that IP KVM was a bad idea. Then I read just about every whitepaper and brochure at Raritan's website. Why not? Might as well try a fourth. Boy am I glad I did. No not glad. THRILLED. What a piece of engineering. 8 IP KVM ports, 8 Serial ports, local KVM, the most robust and well thought out management console I've seen. And mouse tracking? Incredible. I've worked with KVM's where you had to sloooowly move the mouse and the pointer would be an inch or so away from your pointer... but not here. Raritan's advance mouse technology literally tracks your mouse like it's locally connected. This KVM will pay for itself inside of a year... easily! May 4, 2012
